[92 HD] LAW4332 - Criminal Law and Procedure 2 Final Exam Notes S1 2026

Description

If LAW4332 is currently treating your brain like it’s being cross-examined without counsel, this is the lifeline. I scored a 92 HD in LAW4332 (Criminal Law and Procedure 2) and I’m selling the exact final exam notes I used: a 40,000-word, 104-page weaponised outline built for speed, structure, and high-yield issue spotting. This unit has a reputation for being brutal for a reason: the content is dense, the exam wants precision, and the margin for waffle is basically zero. These notes are engineered to keep you on rails when everyone else is free-styling. What you’re buying (aka what your exam marker actually cares about): A chronological, exam-ready framework for criminal procedure (so you stop jumping around and start writing like you know what you’re doing), including how to categorise offences, and the practical workflow around arrest (with/without warrant), detention/custody, questioning, forensic procedures, search and seizure, and bail. A tight, step-by-step breakdown of the heavy hitters in criminal responsibility and defences, including fitness to stand trial, mental impairment, automatism, duress, sudden or extraordinary emergency, intoxication, and more, with a “how to run it in an answer” structure. High-yield offence scaffolds for attempts (AR/MR, intention logic, voluntariness/desistance, impossibility), plus core property offences like theft, deception, robbery (including armed robbery), burglary (including aggravated). Clear guidance for strict vs absolute liability and the honest and reasonable mistake of fact defence (where most people either overcomplicate or miss the point). Coverage of drug offences (DOD concepts, use, possession, trafficking and quantity offences) laid out like an actual exam answer, not a textbook therapy session. Why these notes convert (and why your current “summary” probably doesn’t): They’re written in an execution-first format: issue → rule → elements → thresholds → conclusion, so you can deploy under time pressure. They’re built around the reality that in crim you must address defences properly, not as an afterthought. They reduce cognitive load: you’re not trying to remember “what comes next” mid-exam. You’re just running the play. Who this is for: If you want to stop drowning in readings, stop guessing how to structure procedure questions, and start producing answers that look like they belong in the top band, this is for you. If you’re already strong, it’s still a force multiplier: cleaner structure, faster recall, better coverage. How to use it (so you actually get ROI): Learn the skeleton frameworks (procedure + defences). Drill 2–3 practice problems using only these steps. Add your lecturer’s quirks as small annotations. Walk into the exam with a system, not hope.
